[2.2] (Updated) Dkodr's HS/GS Stun Guide

You swap WED or added fire for ECoMS for map bosses for the extra reduction?

Sweep or GS?

Man, I was so excited when I upgraded my marohi erqi for something with 480 pdps, and here you are pushing 710 with yours lol.

I did swap wed for ecoms against Palace lvl 81 Dominus, I don't need it on bosses in general, stun gem is enough. Depends on your total dps and stun threshold reduction. I would just test it out, if
stunning a boss doesnt work, try ecoms instead of wed. Other factors to take into consideration is map mods; enfeeble makes it harder to stun, same with temp chains and red. dmg. from phys. dmg. etc...

I haven't tried sweep, but if you want to build around stun mechanics then GS is by far the best skill, it has reduced stun threshold as an effect.

Yea, mine is crazy, it deviates a lot from what can be expected to find. Fortunately it dropped for me
and that's the whole reason I started a stun build to begin with.

111k HS with frenzy charges/BR up. 96k normal. So far stunning everything up to 78 maps fine. Haven't ran any of my higher maps yet.

Sounds good! Whats your GS ouput? Just crafted some new gloves



And added a video of double Village Ruin Boss fight:

62.5k GS with bloodrage+3 frenzy charges. My GS and HS gems aren't 20/20 yet, so the dps will end up being a bit higher. But I'm really happy with the dmg and stun ability for this build. I've been swapping BM gem in on enfeeble maps so I don't struggle with mana due to the reduced leech.

I haven't taken the 4th jewel socket yet since I haven't been able to craft a decent one or find one for sale that isn't being over priced, but here is what I'm using so far.




And those gloves are really nice. It looks like you are running AoE gem in ur GS set up from the range in the video yes?

how do we deal with the knockback effect of the heavy strike when doing bosses?...the damage its ok to stun a boss but when stun the boss then he gets free from the knockback effect and hit me back...how do you deal with that? something i missing?
